After watching this video I may have discovered what I’m doing wrong, 90% of the time my milk is too thick to do latte art. I have a dbl boiler Alex Duetto 2, plenty of steam power. I steam 1/2 cup of milk, it steams very quickly. I believe your 1 cm expansion is the answer. Till now most videos talk in terms of 5-8 seconds, I’ll try tomorrow but believe a rise of 1 cm would take only 1-2 seconds. The other problem I have 10% of the time is the foam and milk don’t mix well. The 1/2 cup sits very low in my pitcher and I can’t get that perfect angle to get that whirlpool effect. I could steam more milk but I’d just be throwing it out. I think I’ll look for a smaller pitcher.

Oh yeh! I sometimes talk in seconds, but watching the volume of milk increase is MUCH more accurate, as every machine has different steam pressure which will lead to different volumes of froth being added per second depending on the machine! How did you go?

Nobody talks about the number and position of holes in the nozzle, and how those help or not your milk steaming for cafe art
@brewbudsclub Жыл бұрын
Nobody talks about it because it's not really that important. Technique is exactly the same no matter how many holes your steam tip has. Bigger machines tend to have more holes, but you wouldn't want lots of holes on a machine with a smaller boiler/thermoblock setup etc.

Agree. I went from a steam tip with a single hole to one with 4 holes. Technique is actually different.
@suffin648810 ай бұрын

Sit it in the same position and eventually the whirlpool will start it just takes a bit more time. You can also get a smaller milk jug (400mL) and heat less milk at a time (a cup worth instead of a mug) to help the whirlpool work faster. I've used the same technique on machines from $300 to $30k, works the same although obviously easier with more steam pressure.

I have a very old espresso machine. The wand doesn’t move at all and it’s in such a weird position that it will not even make my milk swirl, no matter how I try to reposition my cup. I’ve just come to settle for sub-par foam at this point. But it was $5 at a thrift store and I’m poor.

Hey, I just need a bit of help with, I have the milk down pat, looks like white paint when I'm done with it. But my problem is when I go to do the art the froth just comes out at the start, instead of the milk which then makes the first half of the drink pure milky froth. Then once the froth comes out at the start the milky liquid then comes out at the end. I have been watching many videos trying to figure out what's going on, but I can't seem to figure it out. I see people poor at a Hight to start off with and liquid comes out, but mine just pours pure froth. Oh, also I have made sure that I'm not making too much froth and when I pour the froth still comes out first.

Are you using full cream (higher fat content) milk? some milks separate really badly so although it looks like it's wet paint and silky, by the time you pour it has separated. Probably the best thing for you to do is to send a short video of your milk texturing and pouring to my instagram (@thecoffeefusion) so I can see what's going on. The main things I would have suggested (too much air in your milk, separated milk, pouring from too close to the cup) you all mentioned as not being the problem.. so we'll have to dive a bit deeper!

@sethbclark Жыл бұрын
@@brewbudsclub the basics are the same (foam first, then whirlpool), but cheap machines take 4-5x the amount of time to steam, create far less steam, and require a number adjustments to technique. A newbie with a single boiler breville won't get a lot of use out of this video unfortunately. I'm not trying to be a dink, this video just seems a bit out of touch.
@brewbudsclub Жыл бұрын
They have less steam pressure, but the technique is the same. It just takes longer. The problem most people have with their cheap machine is that nothing happens in the beginning, so they start moving around the spout of the steam wand, perhaps moving it up and down, trying to make something happen. Instead, if they just sit it in the correct position, the continued steam pressure in the same, correct spot will start to cause the milk to spin, which is what you need to take the air you've added and incorporate it into the milk. I've helped thousands of people improve their milk quality, from people just saying they've watched the video and now it's improved, to them DMing me on insta with a video and me providing feedback. Same technique, a range of home machines, good results all round. What technique would you suggest for someone with a cheaper machine which will result in better milk quality, if this isn't it?

Ever heard of preferences? Some people can't take the bitterness of the coffee too strongly, so they added some sugar to balance out the bitterness so its drinkable for them. Hell, I like my coffee black, but i won't condemn other people for not liking it black and calling them "not coffee". Like it or not, its still categorized under coffee because the base is coffee. The world would be a dark place if everyone was as strict as you do.
